Jaconé Surf Forecast and Surf Report

Alright, surfers, Rusty here. Let's get into it. We've got a bit of a mixed bag over the next couple of weeks, but there are some real gems hiding in there if you're patient.

The first few days are pretty average. Friday and Saturday are a write-off with poor conditions and small, short-period swell. The water is sitting at a comfortable 72°, which is pretty much what you'd expect for this time of year.

Sunday the 26th is where things start to look up. Jaconé is looking at a clean 3 ft south swell with a solid 14-second period. The wind is glassy in the morning, which is a major win. The combined energy is a solid 605, so there's a decent amount of power in the water. It's a long-period groundswell, so it'll be pushing through with some nice lines, though it might be a bit too straight for the beach breaks. The morning session is the standout.

Monday the 27th and Tuesday the 28th keep the trend going with clean, offshore winds in the mornings. The swell drops a bit in size, but the quality remains good with that south swell hanging around. Tuesday morning is particularly nice with a clean offshore breeze from the NE.

We hit a bit of a lull from Wednesday afternoon through to Friday. The conditions get messy and the swell drops right off. It's a quiet patch for a few days.

Then the first weekend of August kicks off with a return of clean surf. Saturday the 1st has a punchy 4 ft to 5 ft south swell, but the wind gets strong on Saturday afternoon. Sunday the 2nd is a better bet with a clean 5 ft east swell and light offshore winds in the morning.

Now, the real gold is at the end of the forecast. Thursday the 6th of August is looking like a proper session. We've got a 8 ft east-southeast swell, and the wind is light and offshore from the NE. The combined energy is a massive 1049, meaning there's some serious power. This is a big, clean swell that's only for the experienced crew – it's well over 8 ft, so it's expert territory. Friday the 7th of August is also a cracker, with a 6 ft east swell and a gentle offshore wind. The energy is even higher at 1136. This is the best stretch on offer, but it's a long way out, so keep an eye on it.

So, the standout is Sunday the 26th for a glassy, clean session, and that Thursday and Friday the 6th and 7th of August for the big, powerful, clean swells for the experts.

Rusty.
